The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia stood at the side. “Why did you imbibe during the day?”

moment Sophia opened the door and stepped foot into the living room, she jumped in fright. The lights in the living room weren’t switched on, but it wasn’t pitch-black, so she could clearly see someone sitting on the sofa. The light switch was

All at once, she went ballistic and roared in a near shout, “John Constance, are you f*cking insane? Why were you sitting in my house in the dark? How did you get in? I’m warning you, I’ll lodge a police report if you persist in doing this. Do you know that you’re
